COVID19 causes inflammation of the vascular endothelium—the tissue lining blood vessels. Diffuse organ damage is a consequence. Some studies suggest an upsurge in Parkinsonism and possibly vascular dementia—brain fog definitely happens. So you'd expect an upswing in random anger, across all ages.

This is the kind of stuff ACT and NZ First want to ban. Health research focused on a particular ethnic grouping, even though it will have benefits for everybody far beyond the original study group.

One of the best discussions at the Aspen course was the use of the term parkinsonism. Parkinsonism is a broad clinical syndrome characterized by bradykinesia possibly accompanied by rest tremor, rigidity, and/or postural instability, regardless of the underlying cause.
